Guest guest Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 Thanks Gail, I appreciate your comments. Hope you are doing well. So, you see no difference either then? I didn't but thought maybe it was just me, because so many say how energized they feel on it. I am fighting stomach problems now.....and part of me thinks it was all the supplements.... That is very frustrating. I have stopped everything and am now on probiotics and enzymes and liver cleaner:-) I just bought some Q10 at Walmart and it cost $11. something for 40 geltabs. If it is cheaper here I sure could mail you some. Wherabouts in Canada are you? Western or Eastern? Take care Gail, Jill > Jill, The previous message should have said I don't see a difference > either way. > > Gail > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 Hi Jill, I live in eatern Canada - Mississauga, which is just outside Toronto, Ontario not that far from the New York border. Whereabouts do you live. It was probably mentioned in a posting. CoQ10 cost about $1.00 each for the strength of 100mg per gelcap. I am not sure if i will try them again but will wait until after my surgery as sometimes too many changes all at once are not good - then you can't tell what is working.Thank you for the offer - I will keep it in mind. I am impressed with how your husband is recovering from bypass- my year since surgery has not gone so well but that is just how life is. I am on 21 different prescription medications and have no problems but then I had to start taking 4 supplements upon Doctor's advice and I have had so many stomach problems since - makes you wonder and yet I know some people really do have trouble with medications. My husband couldn't take Lipitor either but he can take Zocor and he did really well on Baycol - so who knows why. Glad to see I am not the only one up in the middle of the night. That is why I enjoy the groups so much and don't want them ruined. Gail > Thanks Gail, I appreciate your comments. Hope you are doing well. > So, you see no difference either then?

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 --Hello, on another message board there is a posting re:studies of different formulations of coq10 to determine content accuracy. I cannot remember all the manufacturers whose coq10 was accurate (we use Tischon gel caps or Vitalinecoq10) though you may wish to check this posting to determine if what you are purchasing is an accurate preparation. the web site is : http://www.forum.ditonline.com scroll down to " Lipitor " and search for the post rating coq10 . There is another posting that is filled with information and references addressing the need for coq10 when taking a statin like Lipitor this can be found at: http://www.dispace.com/message_boards/drugs/Lipitor/_disc70/00001550. htm I have found whenever a web address is longer than 1 line, one must highlight the second line also, or type the address into the address site. There are a # of postings on the DIT board beginning with " FAQ.... " which contain numerous references that should be helpful to both of you as you decide whether to continue taking coq10. best of luck to you both.Madelyn TakingLipitorAndHateIt , " Jillie " <anssepha@s...> wrote: > Thanks Gail, I appreciate your comments.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 Shucks Gail, I was hoping you were on the Western side:-) I live in CA and we love it up in Washington, and hope to go into Canada thereabouts someday. Gail, I feel so blessed that hubby is doing so well......but to be totally truthful, I worry more now than ever.....as he tends to overdo sometimes, and he just tells me " don't worry if I croak you'll know I went happy " ....well, that is hard to rationalize! LOL I am learning tho, we DO have to live after all... You are the Gail on the bypass list...... You are awaiting another surgery right? I was wondering about your physical condition, such as weight......were or are you overweight, or did or do you eat healthy? I know you probably have said on the other list, sorry I forgot, am just now getting people straight in my head;-) My hubby has lost about 30 lbs since his surgery....and wants to loose maybe 10-15 more. Same with me:-( You are a nice lady and I wish you health. hugs, Jill Re: Msge # 1308 and CoQ10 > Hi Jill, > > I live in eatern Canada - Mississauga, which is just outside > Toronto, Ontario not that far from the New York border. > > Whereabouts do you live.
